Most Chinese cars now have one long screen along the dashboard. It’s generally split in 3 sections, one for the driver, one for controls and one for the passenger with controls but also to play media. Plus most Chinese cars have voice commands.
Have you seen their SUV, Xiaomi YU7? I’m not a SUV kinda guy but that is my favorite car right now.
And don’t forget the Koran since the president of the United States said ‘Allah be with you’.
Followed by the Torah in the afternoon as the US is a Israëli vassel state.
He must be as demented as the president. Why does the US have all these fossils in the government? Maybe term or age limits could be an option. But that means their stock portfolio will suffer. On both sides of ailse BTW.
The other guy who went to China and was shocked was the CEO of Ford. He is driving a Xiaomi SU7 that he’s refusing to give up. Read the interview he gave after he visited China. https://insideevs.com/news/764318/ford-ceo-china-evs-humbled/
Browsing is so much worse now. Note I don’t use Google but Duck and turned all the AI shit off. Before Duck also had an AI overview and so many times I had to find actual different sites to verify the information. Wasted so much time. AI truly made everything worse. I had such a simple app to control my curtains. Now it’s fucked by adding an AI POS assistant that takes up the whole main page.
Urgh I hate this enshittification in the name of progress.
Finally someone who has a better understanding how China actually works.
And for the commentar below, actually it’s not only the so called opposition that gets imprisoned or executed. Lately they have been going after Xi’s appointees and allies.
Land of the free, home of the genocidal maniac. Let’s not forget that he was properly elected. Americans should bow their head in disgrace.
Partially agree with you but a lot of things you raised are the same in western countries. It’s also refreshing to read sensible commentary. The mass surveillance is the same in other countries including the US, but not as obvious as in China. The cameras work as a deterrent. I can leave my phone and laptop outside in the park or café and don’t need to worry about it being stolen. Censorship is a real thing all over the world especially now in the US with whitewashing of history. Even on US controlled platforms like Reddit, you get perma banned if you are critical of the Trump administration.
And I’m sure the history books in the US do not go in depth about the treatment of tge native Americans and how they were almost eradicated.
The same in Europe. In the Netherlands the history books never mention the atrocities the VOC did in regards to slave trade and colonies.
I don’t agree about the working conditions. I travel all over China and deal with different businesses. Things are definitely improving. But at least the workers have workers protections and social security and health care.
I have both lived and worked in the US and China and prefer living in China.
Let’s get the downvotes started
Thank God the rest of the world are paying the tariffs to America. Right???
Actually this. Thank you. But unfortunately on the web you can not express anything positive or even neutral about China. Even though most have never set foot in China. If they would especially now most countries can travel visa free to China, it will change their mind. But that goes against the western propaganda.
China is an amazing country with beautiful nature, great people, amazing food, infrastructure Americans can only dream of, and millenia of history.
Plus China don’t starts illegal wars with other countries, impacting people all over the world.
Thanks America and your elected regime for meddling in everyone’s lives. You might be shocked to learn your popularity is waning.
Don’t people ever wonder like me how people would react if Obama would post something like this in his term? I mean, talk about unhinged. Other world leaders look at this shit and be even more resolved to move on without the US. There will be a long, long time to even rebuild 20% of the trust.
How can MAGA look at this and think ‘this is fine’?
AliPay works only for Chinese citizens overseas. I use AliPay happily in China, but it will not work overseas as I’m a foreigner. Luckily most ATM now accept unionpay which is the Chinese card standard.
Wait till you see how China pays for over a decade now. Only QR code or NFC. Since I moved here, I haven’t used cash or card in over 7 years. Everything you need is in one of the 2 super apps. You order food, cars, trains flights, bike share, etc all through the one app. Even the street vendors and few beggars you see, have a QR to scan.
I truly don’t understand the railway network in the US. Living in China now and the high-speed railway is amazing here.
It takes 4 hours from the center of Shanghai to the center of Beijing and next year will be cut to under 3 hours.
And nothing to do with but the US is a big country. China actually has a larger landmass than the US and I can go from one side of the country to the other by high-speed train.
It’s cheaper, more comfortable than by plane. They even have high-speed sleeper trains now for these long journeys. Japan, South Korea, Europe, UK, and even African countries like Morocco have proper high-speed rail.
The lack of investment in infrastructure in the US puts it decades behind the rest of the world. I guess to money for infrastructure goes to worthy causes like invading Venezuela and Iran.
Edit: the continent of Africa is building a high speed railway network connecting 60 cities throughout the whole continent. That is how far the 3rd world country of the United States of America is behind. https://africanagenda.net/african-integrated-high-speed-rail-network/
As a white European, who has lived in worked in the USA for a few years, worked with a fully 100% Japanese enterprise and now living in China for the last 7 years, I can wholeheartedly say China. I made myself swear I’ll never work with Japanese again. It’s the most frustrating experience. My project was supposed to take 9 months but ended up taking over 3 years due to indecisiveness from the Japanese. Plus the working hours are insane with the drinking afterwards. China is much better than Japan workwise. Also I don’t know why you left nature out of the China list. Nature is amazing here. For me personally living here is great. The infrastructure with public transport and high speed railway is second to none. Plus the daily convenience because of the super apps like AliPay and Wechat. It’s hard to explain to someone who hasn’t been here. Luckily a lot more people are discovering China thanks to the visa free travel now for most countries - except the US of course. It’s amazing to hear/see these tourists being shocked how good and normal life is in here because they get fed only negative propaganda back home. China is not North Korea.
Another reason why the US is in rapid decline. Luckily now all the other nations in the world are hiring all the scientists. After 4 years of this regime and that whale fucker in charge of the department of health, there will be a completely different dogma to the real science.
Fuck FIFA, fuck Israël.
